I woke up around 2pm. The first thing I did when I woke up was look at my phone to see if I have some messages. Aside from some messages on instagram I got another one from my boss it read

"I'm sorry to ask you this but could you work again tonight, Soyeon was supposed to work, but she injured her leg"

I burried my head in the pillow and let out a deep sigh. "Why does this have to happen to me" I thought to myself.

After about thirty minutes of laying in bed and being lazy I got up and went downstairs. My mum was waiting for me with a breakfast.

"Good afternoon sweetheart"
"Good morning mum"
"Did you sleep well?"
"Yeah"
I looked around, but I couldn't see my dad
"Did dad leave for work?"
"A long time ago"
"Oh ok".

I sat down at the table and started eating breakfast. My mum just looked at me. It was a bit weird, but I didn't pay much attention to it.

After I finished breakfast or lunch, I wasn't sure anymore, I went to get ready to go out.

"Where are you going" mum asked me as I was putting my shoes on.
"I'm going to see Yoona"
"Oh okay then. Have fun, and don't come late"
"I won't".

I got out and texted Yoona.We agreed to go to the usual coffee place.

I sat at the table near the window looking at the busy streets of Seoul. I was kinda sad seeing everyone in a hurry. It felt like they were missing on on life while living it.

My deep thoughts were interrupted by Yoona.
"Hey, earth to Nina" she was waving her hand in front of my face.
"Oh sorry, I was lost in thought"
"Yea I could see that. So how is my girl, it's been a while since we sat down like this" she asked me while calling the waiter to order
"Yea, I've been good, what about you? "
"Well the usual ya know, everything is going well"
"I'm glad"

Yoona was a few years older then me, to be precise she was 3 years older than me. We met when I was 10 and we've  been friends ever since. She was atcualy one of the firts friends I made when I came to Korea.

"So how's at it going at a job?" she asked me while we were waiting for our order.
"Well it's boring as always, I mean I work at a convinience store how intresting could it really be"
"I don't know I thought maybe you met some cute boy or something" she winked
"Yeah right, even if I did there is no way that thing is going to work"
"Awww come on why are you so pesimistic"
"I'm not pesimistic I'm just realistic"
"No you are not, you are pesimistic, and you know why? It's because you haven't had a boyfriend for 2 years, 2 fricking years. Do you know how long that is?"
"I don't know it doesn't seem that long to me tho"

The waiter brought us our coffe, Yoona took a sip and said
"You know what we should do? We should go out!"
I looked at her in confusion "Are you serious?"
"Yeah why not, it's been a while since the 2 of us got out. So then how's does tonight sound hm?"

She leaned in towards me a bit waiting for my answer. I didn't want to refuse her offer but I had no choice since I had to work tonight.

"I'm sorry but I have to work tonight"
"Aw what a bummer" she leaned back into her chair looking disappointed. I felt kinda guilty for having to refuse her but I had no other option.

I got home around 7pm. Strangely enough the house was locked when I tried to get in. I assumed that my parents were away from home probably at some dinner or something.

I got inside and went straight into my room. I threw myself on the bed feeling hella exhausted for no apparent reason. I somehow crawled to my laptop and got it. Since I didn't have anything to do I decided I finish the drama that I was watching.

After 2 hours of crying and fangirling I finally finished the drama. I was left empty, I felt like my life had no meaning and that nothing can beat that beautiful ending. When I did decide to get my lazy ass up, it was already 21:30. I started to panic because I knew for a fact that I was going to be late for my work. I went to the bathroom, took a quick shower, put on some make up and rushed out the door like a freaking cheetah.

By the time I arrived I was breathing like a old man with an asthma. But the good thing was, I arrived on time.I changed into my uniform, and was ready to party.

Like the night before there wasn't a living creature passing by, which was OK with me, since I didn't really like interacting with people anyway. While waiting for someone to come I decided to call my parents to see if they are home yet. While scrolling trough my contacts I've seen an unfamiliar name. It said "Guy who owes you money" I was a bit puzzled as to who that might be, but then it came to me. It was the guy from yesterday for whose drinks I paid. I was just looking at the name not knowing what to do with it.

First I called my mom to see if they arrived home safely. They did. Now I was thinking of what l to do with the number in my phone.

"I never really expected of them to bring me the money" I said to myself.

But I kinda wanted to text him just to see what happens. But I was also really anxious for some reason. All kinds of scenarios went through my head "what if they gave me wrong number just to fck with me, what if they think that I am that poor that I would call them for something so stupid". After about 15 minutes of overthinking the situation I decided to send a message. I thought to myself that I got nothing to lose. The message I sent was like this:
"Hey not to be rude, but you said you were going to bring me the money today - convinience store girl"

Now the only thing left to do is wait. I wasn't hoping for an answer, it was clear that I just wasted 4,500 won on  2 drunk guys. He probably has no clue who I am, but there was nothing I could do about that.

To my suprise 15 minutes later I got the text from him. "Yeah, I'm sorry I'm on my way to bring you the money"

I was shocked af. I was just staring at my phone in disbelief. I mean I wasn't expecting this. I was nervously walking in circles in the middle of the store. "Nina, breathe" I thought to myself.

In next 10 minutes a car stoped in front of the store. As soon as I saw him get out of his car I started to panic. My palms started sweating, but I was able to keep my cool.

He came in and said Hi, I was just standing at the counter and smiling awkwardly.

He came to me and pulled his wallet out. "I hope I'm not late" He looked at me with a smirk
"No, not at all! I wasn't even expecting you to show up"
"Well I promised, and I always keep my promises"
"Well I guess that is true"
The only thing that was in my head was "Gosh he is hot"
He got his wallet out and handed me the money. "It's this much right?" he gave me 4,500 won.
"Yeah that's it". The whole time I was basically staring at him.
"Then, I'm going, bye" he waved at me on his way out.
For some reason I was speaking without thinking and as he was opening the door I said:"UM... uh... Would you mind staying here a little bit more, I'm a bored by myself"

As soon as I realised what I said I turned red as a tomato. I wanted to dissappear from there. And he didn't say anything, he just smiled.
